The Ypsilanti Daily Press published this story on Tuesday,
July 28, 1936
Batting his line
for fish and catching a Georgia alligator is the experience a fisherman had
Monday night on the Huron River in the Vicinity of the gas plant. (Where the
DPW yard is now at Forest and Huron.) It is 18 inches long and young.
It was taken to
the Ypsilanti Tourist Park (now Water Works Park) where it has found asylum.
Jack Flagg, custodian, thinks it may have been somebody’s pet and escaped or
was turned loose, or it may have been left behind by some show. One of its feet
is a little injured, and it carries also the hook mark in the roof of its
mouth.
